Is it your understanding that the srfi process is about producing
library code?
No, as it happens, but that is irrelevent. To recapitulate:
Bear: The business of passing around thunks and continuations
as objects as in SRFI 34 seems to me to get in my way and
complicate things, and I don't think it actually provides
more generality or functionality.
Richard Kelsey: The generality it provides is that it runs in
implementations of R5RS.
Specifying SRFI 34, or any other SRFI, in terms of R5RS has utility.
I said nothing about it being a requirement.
